On this page, you can find instructions for all the centers you'll be using during our class. All centers work should be recorded in your "RELA Centers" Googledoc. Each day, you need to enter the DATE, the NAME OF THE CENTER you're in, and whatever work is required in that center.
Perilous Math Problems:

1. In your own words, what was the problem asking you to find out?
2. What answer did you come up with?
3. What did you do to get that answer?
4. How could you check your answer?
5. Check your answer. Does it work?
6. What parts of this problem were simple?
7. What parts of this problem were difficult?
First In Math:

Math Vocabulary:
In this center, you'll write the DEFINITIONS IN YOUR OWN WORDS and an EXAMPLE of each of our math vocabulary words in your Googledoc. You can use a dictionary or your math book to help you, but remember, your work must be IN YOUR OWN WORDS.
